In summary
University & Avenues sits close to the national midpoint for deprivation, #3,659 of 6,856 in England, and #4 of 15 in Norwich. It is highly uneven across the seven themes — strong on Living environment (87) but weak on Education (15). Typical homes here sold for about £240,000 over the past year, down 32% across five years (from 37 sales), in line with the wider Norwich median of £233,200. Cheaper homes only partly offset the deprivation score, leaving it at #1,553 of 6,851 on our affordability-adjusted measure. Typical household take-home income is around £33,679 a year, in the bottom third of England. Recorded crime ran at 64 incidents per 1,000 residents over the past year, below the England rate of 83.
